The relief vent, full length
If earwax has accumulated in and/or around the relief
vent opening, do as follows:
Clean any earwax from
the vent by passing
the long wax removing
tool (no. 4) all the way
through the vent.
Important
It is important for the performance of the hearing
aid that the relief vent is never blocked. Make it a
habit to clean the relief vent every day! In rare cases
so much earwax can accumulate in the relief vent
that the hearing aid sound is affected. In that case
you should see your hearing care professional.
The microphone opening
If earwax or dirt has gathered around the microphone
opening on the hearing aid front, do as follows:
Open the battery drawer and
remove the battery.
Turn the hearing aid so the
open battery drawer is facing
downwards.
Guide the short end of wax re-
moving tool no. 3 through the
microphone opening on the
battery drawer from the inside
as illustrated.
Important
If you suspect that earwax or dirt has migrated
through the microphone opening and into the actu-
al microphone inside the hearing aid, contact your
hearing care professional. Do not insert anything
into the actual microphone.
